the actual title:
4. fuck the "save" button, let's just trash your work from the past three minutes!i think the 80 character title limit is bullshit
anyways, there is one big reason as to why i try to not write my drafts only on wattpad:
the save mechanic is absolute bullshit.two chapters ago, i put this:
because things don't save properly. it sucks.
this is a segment of the author's note from malia's story 7even:
if you ignore the ranting about kyle dubas and his poor life choices, you can see that saving isn't a new problem.
it's happened with multiple poems (lmao) i've written, the forewords to stories, and, most frustratingly, aesthetics chapters.
i'm not a fan of it. it sucks.
if your website is not fast enough to save every sentence you write, make it better. but, here's another thing:
on mobile, if you scroll up far enough and fast enough, the part you're working on will disappear. like this:
here's a fun fact that i found out last night, there's a chance that your work might not've saved. so, if you accidentally scroll too far and too fast, all your work from the past three minutes will have vanished.
it sucks.
dear wattpad, please do one (or two) of two things:
remove the disappearing act of the too-far-too-fast scrolling part
or
IMPLEMENT A GODDAMN SAVING SYSTEM THAT WORKS
